Student Research

Students are encouraged to conduct either independent research or to collaborate with faculty members. As you will see from the listing below, students are involved in conducting investigations into everything from eating disorders to the effects of cocaine on learning in rats. The quality of these projects is demonstrated by the fact that many of them have been presented at conferences such as the Society for Research in Child Development, Western Psychological Association, the American Psychological Association, and the Association for Psychological Science.

This is a partial list of recent research projects that both students and faculty worked collaboratively on. Remember that there are more topics unexplored than have been explored.
